Is there a supplier that sells the intake rubber hose clips a bit cheaper than the usual suspects. As I need 12 in total it's a bit much paying £9 each (DSS). I notice the old trick of buying a cheap set from Cruzinimage and just keeping the clips is no more, they now also supply them without the clips.

Sorry. Just realised you are looking for 750.
-
If you want identical you are stuck with DS, if you want some to work try ebay item144108712644 I have used them on 550 and the are the correct width but need the ends cut off after tightening as there is a lot left (dremel with disc)
-
I used these on my 400/4 they do a few sizes.

Not sure were you get 12 from ??? There are two different sizes. Just BZP your old ones ;)
-
I haven't got any old ones, unfortunately it didn't come with any. 4*3=12. 8 on the intake rubbers and 4 on the airbox.

Try doing a search on turbo clamps Roy there are quite a few different types.
-
The 500/550 uses the air cleaner clamp number Roy, I may have some lying about. I don't use them on mine as I prefer using stainless steel clamps these days. I'll have a look. I seem to recall they are bigger than the insulator clamps.
-
i came across these the other day. ebay no 370476746124. not sure if they are any good
-
What about these?, they seem to do various sizes and not too badly priced.
I am not sure of the band width as I am not near my bike at present.

Mikalor clamps are too wide ;) And jubilee clips cut in to the rubbers .

DSS were charging £9 each for these clips last week they now want £12 each. These bikes wont be worth restoring soon if these price rises continue.

I suppose it wouldn't be quite so bad if they were the original silver ones but that's a bit of a high price for the superceded black ones.
I've a big box of clamps here but I'm not sure, without looking closely, if I have the ones you need Roy.

These are the ones I need Julie, as kindly pointed out by Trig. I think I may have a few used ones in the lock up that I can get re-plated but cant get there until weekend. Can I let you know on Monday what I need. Thanks.

Not sure about later 750's but my UK Oct '69 built bike had (has) chromed clamps carb/head and BZP carb/airbox as standard.
